Neurological morbidity of surgery for supra-sylvian operculo-insular epilepsy.

This study provides insights into the risk factors associated with surgery-related neurological morbidity, as well as further evidence on the postoperative occurrence of subcortical injury and seizure recurrence in epileptic patients undergoing supra-sylvian operculo-insular resections. The findings highlighted in this study may be useful to better understand the processes supporting the increased surgical risk in the operculo-insular region.
